#12There are a few spelling and grammatical issues. "in a fun, and harmless way": comma isn't needed. "There # Number: You probably want "their" (ditto for 'There Email') and "# Number" is redundant. Use either the pound sign or the word. You also probably mean "phone number." How are you making sure your service won't be abused?
i think you can only remind someone once over a period of time
The menu goes up to 5 messages in 24 hours. It stops after 24 hours.

#16I wonder how the variety of collections and consumer protection laws apply here (I know there's technically no "consumer", but I'll bet that harassment to pay up falls in there somehow…)

#17Haha nice! I built something similar for Twilio + FreshBooks called "Wheres My Money Man?" using clips from Family Guy: http://www.songcupid.com/wheresmymoney/
It barely works but whatever.

#18Whose twitter username is "Twitter username" in the third choice?
I also wondered the same thing. I think that could be made a bit more clear.

#19Let's think about the what's going to make ppl pay up more. How about some public humiliation?
eg. If Twitter user A owes money, tweet at all A's followers telling them about it ... "@AFollower Did you know @A owes @B $20?"
http://www.spanishvida.com/2010/02/22/in-spain-debt-collecto... is the story I heard that sparked this idea BTW.
Not that I'm saying this is a good idea and you should do it, I think you'll be shut down so quickly, I'm just pointing out ...

#20Cool app. You could integrate with the WePay API so that the person owed money could actually collect easily online.
